New Tires! Fox Coilovers to replace Spacer lift?

[Meethead]

I finally got some 285/75R18 Toyo RT's put on. They gave me about 2" more clearance from the stock tires! they ride great with a soft feel. The thing i would like to do now is replace the stock springs,shocks and lift kit spacer for fox Coil overs. Would the Fox coil overs that give the 3" lift replace the spacer need?

2.5-3" yes.

 

If you're setting them at 3" I would look for an aftermarket UCA that fits with your wheels offset/backspacing.

Yeah Buddy, I have the RC UCA's with Bora HC wheel spacers already on! Which is better for the money? Fox, Icon, King ?

King will be the best, followed by Icon and then Fox. King/Icon will be the most expensive.

 

Icon has a different style of valving than King/Fox, it uses digressive valving. Where King/Fox both use progressive valving.

 

So first you'd need to decide which style of valving you want (progressive or digressive), then if progressive...decide if you want to spend more or less money (King is more expensive than Fox but Fox is still a great suspension system, as I currently have Fox)

 

Hope this helps. I would double check with RC that their UCA's will fit w/ the suspension & wheels your planning on going with. Especially topping it off with spacers.

Yeah I have the 4" Rc lift(UCA,Spacers) already on. I would like to swap the stock spings with RC spacers out for A coil over kit that will give smoother ride.

 

The 285/75R18 are already on the Truck! these tires are awesome!

Coilovers over a level probably the smartest decision you'll ever make for that truck if you do any kind of off roading or even plan on going over speed bumps for that matter... I went with icon 2.5 coilovers I immediately felt the difference from stock specially after the first speed bump. I drive 10-20 miles off-road in my job site daily. Through you name it.. and Its doing just fine so far(4 months).I've never owned fox or king but if not icon I would go King.
